Why Quartz Worktops?

At Beau Bijou Design, we only believe in providing and recommending the best products. Yes, there are other worktop options, each with their own unique benefits but Quartz Kitchen Worktops tick all the boxes for us.

Quartz Worktops are manufactured using natural quartz stone combined with pigments and aggregates to make up the colour and pattern and resins to bind it. Using vibration technology and a long curing process, the final result is a low maintenance, scratch, heat and stain resistant worktop that will last a lifetime.

There are hundreds of brands but only a small handful of brands have been manufactured and tested to EN standard which is the standard a product has to meet for the UK market although not a legal requirement. Those brands are Gemini Worktops, Silestone and Caeserstone.

To book your template, we ask for 2 weeks notice. At this stage, we bring your deposit up to 50%. This allows us to order the stock and ensure we can turnaround your installation as quickly as possible. Your template will be carried out professionally using the latest laser template technology ensuring the most accurate measurements possible. During your template there may, on occasion be changes. This is usually down to incorrect measurements provided at quote stage or by adding products at template. We mitigate this as much as possible during our initial call. Whilst the industry average is around a 9% increase in cost at this stage, we aim to complete your order at the original price given during the quotation.

Your template will be sent straight to the factory electronically where it will be checked and emailed to you to confirm before fabricating the worktops.

Your worktops will then be fabricated to your exact measurements using industry leading CNC technology. The factory is fully up to date with all guidelines and goes the extra mile to ensure the safety of the fabricators and the quality of the finish. There is a lot of talk around Silica in Quartz worktops. We follow all safety guidelines and only cut in the factory in a well ventilated environment using water on each cut to remove the dust from the air. The worktops are then cleaned and go through a final quality control inspection before the are are dispatched.

Never work with a company willing to cut worktops in your property. This poses a health risk and produces a comparatively poor finish.

Once you have agreed the final template, we ask for the remaining balance to be paid. We then arrange an installation date. This will be within 2 weeks of request. Our installers are all vetted to ensure we only use the best! All installation teams are qualified stone installers with the best equipment and amazing attention to detail.

Our Installers use colour matching glues and Seamsetters to make the joints as tight and inconspicuous as possible.

The installers will bring the worktops with them on the date agreed and install them ensuring complete satisfaction. We will ask you to sign to confirm completion at the end and at this point your warranty will commence. With Silestone, this warranty is for 25 Years!

We are always here to lend a helping hand. As a partner of Natural Stone Surfaces, we ensure our customers receive preferential treatment whether that is through Beau Bijou Design or direct through the manufacturer. Your warranty will always lie with the manufacturer but we don’t just leave you on your own when we complete your installation.
